codex-pet

codex-pet is a skill for Codex from prime-skills/runcomfy-agent-skills. It costs 279 tokens per session (5,838 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A generator that turns one reference image into the two files Codex needs for a custom animated desktop companion: a sprite sheet and a configuration file. Codex Pets are pixel-art companions that react while Codex works.

In plain words
What is it for?

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

codex-pet scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Codex Pet — Pro Pack on RunComfy

runcomfy.com · GPT Image 2 edit endpoint · docs

Codex Pet generator on RunComfy. Turn one source image into a Codex-compatible custom Codex Pet — pet.json + spritesheet.webp — drop it into ${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/pets/<name>/, Codex picks it up next to the 8 built-in Codex Pets.

What a Codex Pet is

OpenAI Codex Pets (released May 2026) are pixel-art animated companions that float over your desktop while Codex codes — they react to mouse interaction and Codex status (scratching head when thinking, popping a speech bubble when a task completes). Codex ships with 8 built-in Codex Pets and supports custom Codex Pets installed locally as a folder under ${CODEX_HOME:-$HOME/.codex}/pets/.

Each custom Codex Pet folder contains exactly two files:

  • pet.json — manifest with id, displayName, description, spritesheetPath.
  • spritesheet.webp — Codex Pet sprite atlas, 1536x1872 PNG or WebP, 8 columns x 9 rows of 192x208 cells, transparent background.

The 9 rows correspond to 9 animation states Codex plays. Each row uses a fixed number of leading frames; trailing cells stay fully transparent.

Why this Codex Pet skill (vs OpenAI's official hatch-pet)

OpenAI ships an official hatch-pet skill that produces the same Codex Pet artifact via the Codex-internal $imagegen system skill (requires Codex Pro + $imagegen configured).

This Codex Pet skill is a drop-in alternative that runs via the RunComfy CLI: a single RUNCOMFY_TOKEN plus runcomfy and magick binaries — no Codex Pro, no $imagegen, no OPENAI_API_KEY. The output Codex Pet artifact is identical — same pet.json shape, same spritesheet.webp 1536x1872 atlas, same 9 animation rows — so Codex treats this Codex Pet exactly like one made by hatch-pet.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
